How many functions in Excel 2003

P

Does anybody has a count of the number of functionalities that are
available in Excel 2003. Furthermore is that any statistics of the
average excel user % knowledge of these funtionalities?

You might look here,

http://contextures.com/functions.html

though I'm not sure whether "functionalities" means something different
to you than "functions".

IIRC, there are over 300 functions.

I've never seen any statistics about % of functions that the average
user knows/uses, though based on my experience, I'd suspect it's in the
low single digits.

The hardest part of that query, I think, is defining what you mean by
"average user".

Not to mention defining 'knows'.

And all of that is pretty much what I said in copy 3 of his question -- 333
worksheet functions as near as I could come up with.

I agree - define 'average', and I was perhaps overly generous - I estimated
5 to 10% of the functions would be 'known' or used routinely by anyone of
those 'average' users who actually uses any functions at all. I'm actually
pretty certain that my working knowledge of them is probably down in that
range.
